there are two type of charge carrier in semiconductor , one is electron which carry negative charge and other is hole which carry negative charge , electron meet with hole and they recombine , Q1 what is carrier transport

Q2 what is carrier statistics in semiconductor

carrier transport mans motion of charge carrier in semiconductor

I don't know about carrier statics in semiconductor

A hole carries positive charge, not negative.

Q1 what is carrier transport

The motion of the two charge carriers.

Q2 what is carrier statistics in semiconductor

Fermi-Dirac and Fermi-level are different or same thing

Fermi and Dirac are two people from history.
Fermi-level is an energy that is named after one of them.
Fermi-Dirac statistics are a kind of statistics that you can look up online and in your course notes which is named after the people.
Short answer: different.
